Some YouTube folks I like said this earlier today. I was a little disappointed, particularly since they film around Baltimore, and evidence of failed liberal policies are all around them.
If you cared about people, you wouldn't enslave the producers to the IRS.
If you cared about people, you wouldn't enslave them to lousy government programs.
If you cared about people, you wouldn't have destroyed the school system from the inside.
If you cared about people, you'd donate to charities rather than force everyone else to be tax slaves.
If you cared about people, you'd support the free exchange of ideas.
If you cared about people, you wouldn't have spent eight years fawning over a president who bombed seven countries.
If you cared about people, you wouldn't assault them in the street for thinking differently than you.
If you cared about people, you wouldn't be beholden to crony capitalists.
If you cared about people, your policies wouldn't destroy every city they touch.
If you cared about people, you'd let them keep more of their paycheck.
If you cared about people, you wouldn't have forced them to buy a consumer product they possibly did not want.
If you cared about people, you wouldn't welcome a murderous invasion force with open arms.
If you cared about people, you'd stay out of their way rather than try to infest every aspect of their lives.

It's an argument?
Reminds me of Bastiat.

Bastiat was such a boss. He knew that collectivist dystopia was coming and made tons of salient points on the subject before nearly anyone else understood what was going on.

If you cared about people, you'd let them decide on their own decisions in life.

if they are so damned concerned about their "carbon footprint" who's stopping them from reducing their own? Let them live their own screed. Hell, encourage them to be an example... Maybe if we could get some sort of movement started we could be rid of some of these dipshits.

It's weak but it works. Just guilt trip people into having "compassion" for a mass of people who hate you, and you have Islam invading Europe, Spics spilling over the US border daily, and trannies in the military.

The thing about modern liberals is that they are operating under the assumption that if they could just get everyone to be on board with their ideas, they'd have some kind of utopia. The world they want is an impossible one where everyone is simultaneously free to do whatever they want and obligated to be so sensitive toward others they are paralyzed into doing nothing. It is the natural consequence of indefinite adolescence which was only made possible by the brutal struggles of previous generations. They were born into an era of such stability and plentiful resources they can't imagine a situation where they would have to either work or literally starve. It is as alien and fantastic to them as the Harry Potter books they filter their worldview through.
The youngest among them could be forgiven for such a position. It is a naturally occurring mentality for children to view everything through the lens of 'fairness' rather than practicality. It is all many of them have ever known, reinforced daily by nearly every influence they are exposed to from school teachers to all manner of (((media))). The ones who truly deserve the wrath are the older, liberals, the boomers, the cat ladies, the people who have lived long enough to know better. They are every one of them either dishonest or too stupid to be allowed to vote.
Of course, all of this would be a moot point and completely unnecessary to mention were it not for certain hostile alien tribes who worm their way into positions of power and influence through nepotism and completely unfettered in-group preference and self-interest. They then use this power and influence to warp the culture around them into one where they feel safe; a multi-culture where everyone is 'equal' and no one is singled out. Where every 'lifestyle' no matter how perverse or destructive it is to society as a whole must be permitted and unobstructed. They take advantage of the climate of peace and plenty to convince young people that nothing matters, that their choices should be made based on emotions and whatever feels good. This is the heart of modern liberalism.

there care about their feelings
[–] RightEdge 0 points 2 points 2 points (+2|-0) ago
No. They only care about certain particular groups "feelings". If you are a minority, they care about you're feelings (until of course it actually starts affecting their life. It's about looking in the mirror and telling themselves "I'm a nice person"). If you are a straight white Christian male. Your "feelings" are not only inconsequential, but not allowed to speak, have thoughts or feelings that do not agree. How dare you differ. In their mindset all humankind can be broken down into 3 groups, The "victim", the "champion" and the "victimizer". If you aren't on their victim list and you don't champion their victims causes, then you can guess what they will brand you as.

very well stated. saved snippet

Yes, and it's not even true. They're interested in presenting themselves as humane, as they work to destroy those they actually view as lesser than.
They're wolves in sheeps clothing, and they use love, compassion and empathy as a weapon. That is true malevolence.

I am a liberal and I don't care about people. In fact I prefer all people dead.
[–] Elcycs ago
Sounds good. Why don't you get it started? The rest of us will follow your lead. We promise.
